thalassatx:These people ARE the trusted neighbors. The actual suggestion is to give out candy at your OWN HOUSE, but be wearing your holstered gun.

That's all.

If you start handing out candy with a gun on your hip, and especially if you put a toy gun on your child as the nutjob in TFA suggests, then I doubt you'll be trusted by many of your neighbors for long.

ReapTheChaos:I bet some of you people would shiat your damn pants if you knew just how often you pass by people in your everyday life who are legally carrying a concealed weapon.

Not really. It's the people I don't know who are carrying that I don't have a problem with, since I carry concealed too. (Pretty much the only time I wear a button-up shirt).

The people I do have a problem with are the painfully obvious Yosemite Sam types who think they need a handcannon on their hips at all times, and need it to be painfully obvious that guns don't kill people, they do. I tend to stand away from them.

The reason why is that in the event shiat goes down, they're going to be the first person a criminal is going to give a case of lead poisoning to.
